The beloved actor took on the role of a good Samaritan on Monday morning. Harrison Ford is known for his roles in the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchise. At around 10:55 am, a 63 year old woman was involved in a car accident in Santa Paula. Ford having heard the crash, went towards the crash site to check it out. Accompanied by his friend, he helped the driver out of the car until the police arrived. Luckily, the woman escaped with only minor injuries. I believe this article remains neutral throughout the story. The article had a very positive tone to it when talking about Ford’s heroic deed. In today’s society you don’t really hear about many stories like this in the news. It’s good to see stories like this because it kind of gives you a sense of faith in humanity. How would you react if you were put into a situation similar to this. Would you act immediately or would you just ignore it?

My family doesn’t really celebrate Thanksgiving the traditional way as most families do. Usually what will happen is, my parents will cook enough for us to eat. After all, it is just me and parents that live together. The rest of our family resides in either Vietnam or California. Occasionally, I will also visit my friends house for Thanksgiving. Last year, I went black Friday shopping with one of my friends and we had a good time. Although we don’t celebrate as most families do, our Thanksgiving is celebrated in the sense that we are thankful for each other and we acknowledge that we are blessed everyday. We don’t need a big meal to show all that. I remember one year we did celebrate Thanksgiving the traditional way. Safe to say, we hated it. The turkey was expensive and not to mention very dry. We just need each other and that is all that really matters at the end of the day.
